Apex Legends is known for its diverse cast of characters, with the game introducing a believable, fully-fleshed out legend to the game every season. Season 15: Eclipse is no different, introducing us to Apex’s first-ever transgender legend, Catalyst. A practicing witch, Catalyst often turns to tarot cards, crystals, and various other forms of divination for guidance, and as we saw in Stories From The Outlands: Last Hope, she appears to have a spiritual connection to her homeworld’s moon, Cleo.
The practice of both Paganism and Wicca is heavily connected to the moon, and prior to joining the Apex Games, Catalyst actually spent years working to keep the damaged moon from falling out of the sky. But despite her spiritual practices and supernatural aura, Catalyst’s in-game abilities depend entirely on technology. Now, using some “borrowed” equipment from her former employers, Catalyst is ready to put her ferrofluid-flinging skills to the test in the Apex Games and finally take on Seer. Keep reading for a full breakdown of all the facts we have on Catalyst, from her backstory to her abilities.
